NOTE
This repair is only required after blend repair in connection with VRS4292, refer to TASK 72-50-32-300-044 (REPAIR-044).If the coating is damaged, refer to VRS4295, TASK 72-50-32-300-042 (REPAIR-042) or VRS4296, TASK 72-50-32-300-043 (REPAIR-043).Touch up is only permitted in areas A3, refer to Figure.Record the part number, the heat code and the blade life figure, if these are marked on the blade root.Optional standard diffusion heat treatment of 1975 plus or minus 25 deg F (1080 plus or minus 14 deg C) for 4 hours can be used. This diffusion heat treatment gives slightly more corrosion protection. The blades have to be placed in an oven for 8 hours at 1652 deg F (900 deg C) for precipitation heat treatment before shot peening.Refer to the SPM TASK 70-38-14-380-501.
Do the touch-up coating.
